But you'll vote for him because someone on the Internet was mean to you.

He thinks calling his new wife a cunt is perfectly acceptable.

But you'll stand aside and let him take that view into the oval office.

Screw the policies he'll support like his anti-reproductive rights agenda and his hostility to equal pay, let's just think what McCain's total view of women is. To him women are little more than arm candy for his admirers to ogle at. He's a "show 'em off in public and beat 'em down in private" kinda guy.

Yet some of you think he'd be a better choice than the Democratic nominee because Obama beat Hillary in a fair race.

I've read thread after thread comparing Obama supporters to wife beaters, calling him a misogynist, saying that he stands for nothing, etc..., but what it all comes down to is that some are just angry that he beat the woman they've invested so much of their own personalities into.

I'm sorry you're hurt by all of this, but it's time to snap out of it and act like adults. Feminists are people who believe that women are equal to men in every regard and most of the women at DU have shown how true that is. Now it's up to the rest of you to understand that Hillary, the feminist, will take this loss hard, but she'll take it like an adult as well. She'll stand up and do what's right for this nation.

If you can't follow her lead in that then you are no feminist.

If you let a REAL misogynist like McCain win in November because you want to teach the rest of us a lesson, then you're no adult.
